Uwe Eckardt was born in 1979 in Sonneberg, a small town in Germany, and has remained loyal to his birthplace to this day. In 2017 he successfully released his debut "Die Saat des weißen Drachen", which immediately became an Amazon.de bestseller in the fantasy genre (nearly 2,000 enthusiastic reviews with an average of 4.7 out of 5 stars). Due to its great success, the book is now also available in English ("The Seed of the White Dragon"). In "real" life he works as a research engineer in a large corporation, where he develops systems for the generation of hydrogen ("dragon gas" ;) ).
